Which revolver is used by the USMC?

To my knowledge just like the Army, the armed forces have retired all their revolver's. The only one's in the Army that are still in use are by the 3 U.S. Infantry (old gaurd) for historical reenactments.
 
I had a SSgt who was on embassy duty a few yrs ago and said he often carried a .357 revolver. This was before I got into handguns so I didn't ask at the time. when on ship, I've seen the SEALS cleaning and if memory serves me correctly, I saw 1-2 lil back up revolvers here and there. Revolvers are few and far between in Military/LE unless used as a backup..
 
The Air Force is still using M15's...I saw a photo of an "AirPolice" Sgt. with a guard dog and M15 just a few weeks ago...
They have a GREAT website...lots of terrific photos.
